■ Replacing the J1 axis timing belt
It is possible for the customer to replace the timing belt, but precise adjustment is
needed to prevent malfunction of the relevant parts. To ask for replacement of the
timing belt, contact the dealer.
Timing belt replacement of the J1 axis removes the bottom plate in the robot-arm bottom, and replace the belt
from the robot's bottom. For this reason, it is necessary to remove the robot arm from the installation surface and
to place it sideways. Remove the machine cable or piping, etc. corresponding to the usage condition, and put the
robot on the floor sideways.
When removing and placing the robot arm, place J1 motor cover upward. Moreover,
also to turn the No.1 arm cover upward, turn the J1 axis to the front by jog operation
beforehand. (joint angle is near 0 degree) This is the necessity to not damaging the
resin cover.
Topple slowly so that a shock may not be given. If you have the resin cover, there is a
possibility that the cover may be broken.
